ADVERTISING DEVICE.

Specification of Letters Patent P t t d Oct. 12, 1909.

Application filed November 3, 1906. Serial No. 341,951.

Be it known that I, CLARENCE A. MYERS, a citizen of the United States,residing in the city and county of Camden, State of New Jersey, haveinvented a new and useful Improvement in Advertising Devices, of whichthe following is a specification.

My invention relates 'to a new and useful advertising or amusementdevice and consists in mountinga lens and reflector upon a support inorder that the reflection therein will conform to a figure or otherdesign placed upon said support.

In the drawings I have shown a card or' other support having thereon therepresenta tion of a figure of a woman with a tennis racket in her handand an opening therein, the same being occupied by a lens and areflector whereby when a person looks at the place of the opening his orher face appears therein preferably reduced-so. as to complete thefigure, but it will be evident that other figures or designs may beplaced upon the card and that the support or card may be in another formfrom that shown and I donot, therefore, desire to be limited in everyinstance to the exact construction as herein shownand described.

Figure 1 represents an elevation of an advertising or amusementfleviceembodying my invention. Fig. 2 represents a sectional View on line m-m,Fig. 1.

Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in thefigures.

.Referring to the drawings :1 designates the card or support upon which,as above stated, I have shown the representation of the figure of awoman, having the features thereof cut away as at 2, in the presentinstance in circular form. In the cut away portion,'I mount a lens 3having. a reflector 4 behind the same, which conforms in the presentinstance to the shape of the opening and which is a reducing mirror, aswill be seen.

By reasonof the construction described when used, by looking into thereflector, the face of the observer will appear therein in such suitablerelation to the figure, that the size of the face and the features, willconform to that of the figure, so that it will appear as if the face ofthe observer is part of the design, or in other words the face of thefigure will be that of the observer, the effect of whi'chwill beevident.

..Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire tosecure by Let: ters Patent, is

1. In a device of the character described,

.flector in said cut away portion, whereby a reflected image of anobservers form the complete figure.
